What is the probability of rolling 2 fair dice and getting a total of 7 both times from 2 consecutive rolls?
To get a seven on either roll, you would have a one in six chance. That's because no matter what value one of your dice is, there will always be one other value that the other one can be in order to add up to seven.
Your chance of rolling two in a row then would be (1/6)2, or 1/36.
Assuming 6 sided dice, each die could roll 1-6, so:
X| 1 2 3 4 5 6
1| 2 3 4 5 6 7
2| 3 4 5 6 7 8
3| 4 5 6 7 8 9
4| 5 6 7 8 9 10
5| 6 7 8 910 11
6| 7 8 9 101112
These are all the possible outcomes of a roll of 2 dice. We see that there are 6 rolls that give us 7, so we have 6/36, or 1/6. That means that we have a 1/6 chance for a 7 each roll. Then, if we have a 1/6 chance for each in a row, we have 1/6*1/6, or 1/36 chance of rolling two 7's.

What is the probability of getting 4 dots on top in rolling two dice?
The probability of rolling a 4 in a die is 1 in 6, or about 0.1667. The probability, then, of rolling a 4 in at least one of two dice rolls is twice that, or 2 in 6, or 0.3333. The probability of rolling a sum of 4 in two dice is 3 in 36, or 1 in 18, or about 0.05556.
Find the probability of rolling a 2 on a number cube and then an even number on two consecutive rolls of a number cube?
1/6,3/6 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The probability of rolling a 2 is: P(2) = 1/6 The probability of rolling an even number is: P(even) = 1/2 The result on the second roll is independent of the result in the first roll. The probability of rolling a 2 and then rolling an even number is: P(2,even no.) = (1/6) ∙ (1/2) = 1/12 = 0.08333... ≈ 8.33%
What is the probability of rolling a sum of 8 on at least one of two rolls of a pair of number cubes?
The probability of rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 5/36.The probability of not rolling a sum of 8 on one roll of a pair of dice is 31/36.The probability of rolling a sum of 8 twice on two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)(5/36) = (5/36)2 .The probability of rolling first a sum of 8 and then rolling a sum that is not 8 on thesecond roll is (5/36)(31/36).The probability of rolling a sum that is not 8 on the first roll and rolling a sum of 8in the second roll is (31/36)(5/36).So The probability of rolling a sum of 8 at least one of two rolls of a pair of dice is(5/36)2 + (5/36)(31/38) + (31/36)(5/36) = 0.258487654... ≈ 25.8%.
Gary rolls a cube numbered from 1 to 6 What is the probability that he will not roll an even number greater than 3?
Gary's chances of rolling either a 4 or a 6 are the same for any of the other numbers on the cube. The probability is 1 out of 3.
What is the probability of rolling the same number twice?
In 2 rolls, it's 1/6 = 162/3% if you don't care what the number is.If you name the number you want before rolling, it's 1/36 = 27/9%.
What is the probability of rolling a 6 and then a 1 on consecutive rolls of a standard sided number cube?
If you keep rolling the die, then the probability of rolling a 6 and then a 1 on consecutive rolls is 1.The probability is 1/36 for the first two throws.
What is the probability of rolling 3 on two consecutive rolls of a fair dice?
1 in 36.
What is the probability of rolling 2 sixes in a row with a single die?
It is a certainty. If the die is rolled often enough, the probability that two consecutive rolls show a six is 1.
What is the probability of rolling a 2 on a die and then re-rolling the die and getting an even number?
The probability of rolling a 2 is 1 in 6. The probability of rolling an even number is 3 in 6. The probability of doing both, on two rolls, is 3 in 36, or 1 in 12.
How do you get the probability of three dice rolls?
The probability of 3 specific dice rolls is the probability that each one will happen multiplied together. For instance, the probability of rolling 2 then 6 then 4 is the probability of all of these multiplied together: The probability of rolling 2 is 1/6. The probability of rolling 6 is 1/6. The probability of rolling 4 is 1/6. Multiply these together and we get the total probability as 1/216
What is the probability of getting 4 dots on top in rolling two dice?
The probability of rolling a 4 in a die is 1 in 6, or about 0.1667. The probability, then, of rolling a 4 in at least one of two dice rolls is twice that, or 2 in 6, or 0.3333. The probability of rolling a sum of 4 in two dice is 3 in 36, or 1 in 18, or about 0.05556.
What is the probability of not rolling a 6 on a number cube?
The probability of not rolling it ever is 0.For n rolls it is (5/6)n sofor 10 rolls it is 0.1615for 20 rolls it is 2.608*10-2for 100 rolls it is 1.207*10-8 and so on.
What is the probability of rolling a positive number out of 150 rolls?
The answer depends on what you are rolling. With an ordinary die, the answer is 1 (a certainty)..
What is a probability of rolling a 5 with standard die on 9 rolls?
It is 0.8062, approx.
What are the odds of rolling doubles just once in 5 rolls?
The probability is 0.1241
Find the probability of rolling a 2 on a number cube and then an even number on two consecutive rolls of a number cube?
1/6,3/6 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The probability of rolling a 2 is: P(2) = 1/6 The probability of rolling an even number is: P(even) = 1/2 The result on the second roll is independent of the result in the first roll. The probability of rolling a 2 and then rolling an even number is: P(2,even no.) = (1/6) ∙ (1/2) = 1/12 = 0.08333... ≈ 8.33%
When you roll a dice 300 times what is the probability?
The probability of rolling a specific number on a fair six-sided dice is 1/6, as there are 6 equally likely outcomes. When rolling the dice 300 times, the probability of rolling that specific number on each roll remains 1/6, assuming the dice is fair and each roll is independent. Therefore, the probability of rolling that specific number at least once in 300 rolls can be calculated using the complement rule, which is 1 minus the probability of not rolling the specific number in all 300 rolls.
